About Me

I've been on the Couchsurfing website for a while, but university and working got in the way of going on great adventures and meeting wonderful people. I've now graduated I'm ready to take on the world one exploration at a time! I'm starting in New York with six very close friends in January and then travelling on with my partner wherever the wind may take us!

Unfortunately I can't currently offer accommodation in return for the generosity of the couchsurfing community, but I can instead offer cakes, stories, design skills and artworks!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I helped establish an organisation that uses waste food from large corporations to cook large scale dinners. Guests would donate money after their meal, which would be fed into running art workshops for refugees. It established a community of people passionate about waste reduction, community and inclusivity.

Teach, Learn, Share

Share: Printmaking, Illustration, Graphic Design, Stories and Ideas!

Learn: Open to learning pretty much anything! If I had to be specific I'd say Marine Biology, Skiing and Spanish (it's really hard learning when you have no one to talk to in Spanish)!
